m (→‎Regarding Generation V Experience Yields...: No, I haven't been ignoring you. Just not really sure what to do about it. Doesn't help that I don't know much about Gen V.)
Line 41: Line 41:
Nearly every single Pokémon had its Experience yield modified in some way in Generation V; any ideas regarding how to get this data into the system without having to hand-modify almost 500 Pokémon pages? The only thing I could think of was a massive switch case; while it would be stupid ugly, it would get the job done much more efficiently. What do you think about the matter? —<font face="Times New Roman">'''[[User:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#ab2742;">hexagon</span>]][[User_talk:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#60809f;">THEORY</span>]]'''</font> 05:48, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

:The EV yield remains the same, right? If so the new Exp. yield could potentially replace the Battle Exp. part of the infobox - that number itself is just a formula of the Base, with the box taking up the whole width for Gen IV Pokémon (or it could have a -- like the dex numbers section). Unless the new yields are mathematically related to the old ones through a single formula then there's no way to get around adding it to the pages for all 493 Pokémon that need it unfortunately. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 09:27, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

::I do think that the Battle Exp. could be done away with. However, I still don't understand why it would have to be manually added; why couldn't a huge switch case be used in the template to provide the correct Exp. yield based on the National Dex number? —<font face="Times New Roman">'''[[User:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#ab2742;">hexagon</span>]][[User_talk:Hexagon Theory|<span style="color:#60809f;">THEORY</span>]]'''</font> 20:15, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
